It’s time to saddle up for the third and final leg of the Triple Crown: the 157th Belmont Stakes, which shifted from Belmont Park to Saratoga Race Course for 2025.
This year’s race takes place on Saturday, June 7, with post time set for 7:04 p.m. ET. With a $2 million purse on the line, the field is stacked with eight contenders and a rematch that fans have been waiting for: Sovereignty, the Kentucky Derby champion, and Journalism, the Preakness winner.
Sovereignty will look to assert dominance once again after skipping the Preakness, while Journalism will aim to close out a bid for two jewels of the crown.
Other contenders include Baeza, whose broodmare also produced the winner of the 2023 Kentucky Derby, Mage, and the winner of the 2024 Belmont Stakes, Dornoch. Rodriguez, whose trainer is Bob Baffert, missed the past two legs of the Triple Crown with an injury.
